Title: UV light radiating apparatus for hardening UV-curable coatings on flat objects, especially information-carrying discs
Inventor: BISGES MICHAEL
IPC: F21V7/22
Filed: 1996-12-13
Abstract: Equipment for hardening an ultra-violet (UV) curable coating on a flat object, especially an optical information carrying disc (1), has one or more light sources (7) located above the flat object and transmitting light indirectly onto the UV layer, via a reflector system (2,3). Direct transmission of light to the object is prevented by one or more appropriately positioned barriers (4). Preferably the barrier (4) diverts light from the source (7) onto a mirror arrangement (2,3) behind the light source. Additional mirrors (5,6) may also be fitted,  for separating UV from infra-red (IR) light, by reflecting the former and transmitting the latter. The angle of the mirrors (5,6) at the barrier (4) can be varied. Heat radiation from the light source (7) may be absorbed by the barrier if the latter incorporates a heat absorbing body and/or cooling fluid channels and/or cooling ribs over which an air flow passes. The mirror arrangement (2,3) behind the light source diverts at least part of the beam onto the object (1), and may include a flat plate mirror and/or a cylindrical mirror with either a circular, parabolic or elliptical cross-section. Beam focussing or a controlled distribution onto specific areas of the object (1) may be effected by different arrangements of the barrier (4) and the mirrors (2,3) behind the light source (7).

Title: Method of removing moisture from air in an air conditioning system
Inventor: SCHMELZER ROBERT
IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 1997-02-01
Abstract: In a dehydration method, adsorption medium (3) in a box (5) removes moisture from air flowing through it in an air conditioning system, removing liberated heat (8), until it reaches a saturation level, when it is moved into a flow of regenerative warm air (2) and a box (6) containing regenerated absorption medium (4) is moved into the stream of moist air. Preferably the boxes are formed by a circular device (7) which rotates through 180 deg. to move the boxes between air streams (1, 1'; 2, 2'), the circular device being contained within an enclosure (10). Heat is removed from the dried air stream using a heat exchanger (9) through which the air stream (1') flows. Also claimed is a unit for carrying out the method with a housing containing quadrants forming boxes and a device for moving them through 180 deg..

Patent DE-19711467-A1 (DE)
Inventor: HASLER GREGOR
IPC: G01S15/931
Filed: 1997-03-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining the vertical distance between an object and a device with a changing position, especially a motor vehicle, whereby a first sensor placed in this device gives off a signal, said signal is reflected by the object, and the reflected signal is received by the first sensor. The distance between the first sensor and the object is calculated from the transit time of the signal from being sent to being received by the first sensor. This distance is used to calculate all possible positions of the object in relation to the sensor, in order to determine the vertical distance of the object. The signal reflected by the object is also received by a second sensor, this second sensor also being positioned in the device with a variable position. A path from the first sensor to the object and from the object to the second sensor is then calculated from the transit time of the signal from the first sensor to the second sensor. This path is used to determine all possible positions of the object in relation to the second sensor. Finally, the positions calculated for the first and second sensors with the same distance are compared and the vertical distance to the device with a variable position is determined for the positions of the object detected by both the first and second sensors.
